All that you have to know about Italy's 2019 Six Nations Championship
It starts next February 1st and Italy must avoid a terrible negative record
January 29th, 2019
Rugby fans from all over Italy, here we are: next Friday will start the 125th edition of the Six Nations, the most important European competition for nations that will once again see the presence of Italy. The National team, which closed at the bottom of the standings the 2016, 2017 and 2018 editions, has one more reason to try to avoid the defeat against Scotland in the inaugural match: in case of defeat it would extend to 18 the streak of consecutive losses, a negative record that nobody wants to conquer. But it's time to think positive for O'Shea guys, captained by Sergio Parisse, who will start from Edinburgh and will play three matches out of five at home.
